    Default 172 Hours - The Aron Ralston Story

    Just saw the movie last night, unreal. For those not aware, this was the dude that ended up stuck in a crevice in a Colorado canyon in the middle of nowhere and ended up having to cut his right arm off to escape. Amazing story and great job by the director, cinematographers (there were 3) and James Franco in the lead role, keeping our attention (and then some) where 90% of the movie is Aron and Aron alone.

    From what I hear, he is a very humble and cool dude. Friends of mine have met him on numerous occasions at concerts. Apparently he's a big String Cheese Incident fan.

    If you liked that movie you might also like an older one called "Touching the Void."

    That's what I heard too (humble guy) and it comes across in the movie.

    BTW, that's 127 Hours, not 172 Hours.
